1. INTRODUCTION
Area of residential apartments in Russia came to 81 million m2 according to the
data of the Ministry of Construction and Housing utilities. It is 15% more
compared to year 2013.

There are more people willing to have their own living space which boosts
demand in the real estate market.

Fast assembly, reliability, safety and cost effectiveness are the main priorities of
residential construction.

Modern economy allows purchasing any desirable material and technologies

allow designing of complex structures for different purposes.

However, building codes do not always provide necessary information and

methods of calculating of unstandardized structures.

The aim of this thesis is to study building codes, carry out limit state design, and
decide on whether it is possible to use the composite slab in residential
buildings or not.

2. COMPANY RUUKKI RUS.
The thesis was made with Ruukki rus. collaboration in Saint-Petersburg. It is a
Finnish company established in 1960. In Russia mainly metal frame industrial
buildings are produced though the company has an ambition to develop into
residential construction.

There is Ruukki’s factory in Obninsk, a city near Moscow about 100 km away. It
includes three production facilities:

1. Sandwich panels production

2. Heavy metal shop where welding works and painting are done for frames
and trusses.
3. Light sheets elements shop where profiled sheets and metal roofing tiles
are made.

Profiled sheets are rolled on a special automatically programmed machine. The

production line is clean and relatively quiet.

The material is zinc coated thin-walled steel delivered from other factories. The
thickness of a sheet varies from 0,8 to 1,5 mm.

Finished sheets are packed in piles and delivered to a client.

3. THE STRUCTURE OF THE SLAB
The composite slabs in question consist of profiled steel decking with reinforced
concrete on top. (Figure 1)

Figure 1 Visual representation of a composite slab

Reinforced concrete itself is a composite material. It became popular in the

early 1900 in the USA for the first skyscrapers because it is lighter and cheaper
than solid steel elements. It is well known that concrete is efficient in
compression and steel is in tension. Together they manifest the most efficient
ratio of cost and performance.

Construction industry is constantly searching for faster production and cheaper

structures. Reinforced concrete with profiled sheets as permanent shuttering is
exactly such an example.

3.1. The structure

The flooring composite slab is made of concrete, steel reinforcement and
profiled sheets T-153 (Ruukki) serving as a permanent formwork. The slab rests
on steel T-beams with flanges oriented in the bottom. The height of the slab is
220 mm.

The structure acts at two stages. At the first stage (Construction) the loads of
poured concrete, profiled sheets, workers, machinery and reinforcement are
carried by the profiled shuttering. At the second stage (Operating) payloads and
loads of slabs’ self-weight and partitions are carried by the slab itself.

To create a finished look of the ceiling it is suggested that two layers of gypsum
plasterboard are fastened to the profiled sheets by metal furring channels and
bolts.

7
The main source of information for the algorithm of calculations was STO 0047-
2005 «ZNIIPSK Melnikova ltd», «Hilti Distribution ltd». Also SNiPs and GOSTs
were used to conduct the study.

Calculations were carried out to derive:

1. Strength and deflection of the profiled sheets during the erecting

2. Reinforcement diameter
3. Strength of inclined sections
4. Bearing stress of the slab on the supports
5. Deflections of the slab

Anchorage of the profiled sheets is conducted if the sheets are considered as a

bearing structure during the operating stage.

According to the fire safety requirements fire resistance of bearing structures in

residential buildings is R90 which means that in case of fire the structure has to
keep its bearing ability during 90 minutes.

Steel possesses high level of thermal conductivity, its fire resistance is R10-
R15, critical temperature (before steel reaches yield limit) is about 500 °C. Such
characteristics are not suitable for residential buildings therefore the profiled
sheets cannot be considered as the bearing structure at the operating stage if
only special fire protective layer is added. However, it is not cost effective.

Based on that explanation anchorage of the profiled sheets can be neglected.

3.2. Conditions
According to STO 0047-2005 there are a few suitable conditions for the use of
the composite slab:

1. Nonaggressive/mildly aggressive environment (no harmful gases)

2. Humidity less than 75%
3. Te erature less tha 0C
4. Concrete should not contain chlorides
5. Minimum fire resistance RE30

These conditions are compatible with requirements for residential buildings.

8
According to GOST 27751-88 “Reliability of co structio s a d fou datio s”
residential buildings should be referred as structures with the second (normal)
level of reliability. Then the reliability coefficient γn=0,95.

3.3. Materials
In this project lightweight concrete is accepted. B12.5 is the minimal required
strength class. (STO 0047-2005)

Coiled steel is used for profiled sheets.

Steel rods A-III(A400) and steel wires Bp-I are used as reinforcement.

The slab is positioned on steel T-beams which can be rolled or compound.

3.4. Construction requirements

The minimal thickness of the concrete layer above the profiled sheet should be
30 mm according to the fire safety requirements. If screed is not used, then the
concrete layer is 50 mm. (STO 0047-2005)

Profiled sheets are overlapped and joined together by screws or rivets. They
can be adjusted to the T-beams by screws or nails.

STO 0047-2005 suggests that the length of the support of the slab should be at
minimum 40 mm and the minimum thickness of the profiled sheets should be
0,7 mm. The length of the support is accepted 90 mm in the calculations, based
on the recommendations of an experienced engineer.

3.5. Corrosion
There is nonaggressive environment in residential buildings, humidity is 45-
75%. However, in bathrooms and kitchens humidity can vary, therefore the slab
has to be protected additionally.

3.6. Fire resistance

Multi-storey residential buildings have the second degree of fire resistance
meaning that bearing structures are nominated with R90 fire endurance.

In case of fire a concrete cover protects reinforcement from collapse. According

to SP 52-101-200 “Co crete a d rei forced co crete structures without
restressi g” the minimum height of the concrete cover for the main

9
reinforcement should be 20 mm for indoor structures with normal humidity. For
secondary reinforcement the concrete cover should be at least 15 mm.

Therefore the wider corrugation (120 mm) is placed in the bottom to provide
necessary concrete protection for steel bars (formula 2, 3).

Hence, the depth of concrete cover for the main reinforcement is accepted 30
mm and 15 mm for secondary upper reinforcement.

Figure 2 Different placement of corrugations of the slab

Figure 3 Heat distribution in the slabs with different

positions of corrugations

3.7. Acoustics
Aerated concrete reduces impact noise and background sound. Therefore it is a
perfect material for residential buildings. The required sound insulation index is
54 dB. An additional sound proofing layer of velimat 4 mm will be used. Its
sound insulation index is 29 dB.

4. CONSTRUCTION STAGE
During the construction period, when concrete is liquid and has not achieved
cube strength yet, the profiled sheets are considered as bearing structures. It is
necessary to derive strength and deflection for the sheets as for a thin-walled
element which bears its own weight, weight of reinforcement, concrete and the
erection load (workers and machinery).

4.1. Characteristics of the profiled sheet T153-120L-850

The material of the profiled sheets is hot dipped galvanized cold rolled steel type
C320.

The length can vary from 2000 to 12000 mm.

The available thickness is 0.8; 1; 1.2; 1.5 mm

«T» ea s that corrugations have trapezoidal form

«153» ea s that the height of the sheet is 153 mm.

«120» or «43» ea s that the width of top or bottom webs is 120 or 43 mm

respectively.

«L» i dicates a bearing sheet

«850» ea s that the module width is 850 mm.

Figure 5 Cross-section of profiled decking

4.2. Strength calculation

The height of the sheet is 153 mm.

The height of the T-bea ’s web is 220 mm.

12
Consequently, the depth of concrete above the profiled sheet is derived by
formula 1

(1)

The effective height of the composite slab is derived by formula 2

(2)

where

hf - concrete depth above the profiled decking

b - width of the bottom flange (corrugation) of the sheet

b’- width of the top flange (corrugation) of the sheet

hn – height of the profiled decking

s0 – space between centres of the nearest flanges of the profiled

decking

Figure 6 Cross section of the slab

The trapezoidal cross-section with width bf=284mm is used in the calculation

13
 Figure 7 Trapezoidal cross-section of the slab

As an analytical diagram one span beam is accepted because the sheets are
not tied together across supports and work separately.

Figure 8 One span analytical diagram

Formula 3 is used to check whether strength is ensured or not.

[ ] (1)

where
σ –stress in compressed area;

–bending moment;

Ry –design value of tensile resistance

γn – safety factor;
W=0,0000431 m3 resistance moment per one metre.

14
 [ ]

The maximum allowed stress is three times bigger than the calculated stress
meaning that strength is ensured definitely.

4.3. Deflection calculation

Characteristic loads are used to derive deflection (formula 4)

[] (2)

where

fn – maximum deflection

k=5/384 – coefficient, determined according to analytical diagram type;

qn- characteristic load;

l – span length;

Еa – elasticity modulus of the profiled sheet;

Jx – moment of inertia per one metre.

[]

The calculated deflection does not exceed the maximum allowed deflection.
Consequently, the profiled sheet T153 with the 0.8 mm thickness – the smallest
thickness available - and steel type C320 is accepted as it satisfies the
requirements of strength and deflection.

15
5. OPERATING STAGE
During the second stage the composite slab is considered as the bearing
structure. The profiled sheets are considered as permanent formwork, they do
not bear loads.

5.1. Design of the composite slab

Limit state design is carried out to derive whether the slab meets the
requirements of strength and deflection or not.

For the calculations the following assumptions are accepted:

1. Tensile strength of concrete equals zero.

2. Stresses in the profiled sheets are evenly distributed along the height
and equal design value of resistance of steel Ry=312,20 N/mm2
considering service factor γс=0,8
3. Stresses in the main reinforcement equal design compression resistance
Rsc=355 N/mm2 and tensile resistance Rs=355 N/mm2 considering
adequate service factors
4. The effective depth h0 is the height of the reinforcing steel from beginning
of the reinforced concrete section in compression to the reinforcing steel
bars in tension

For the study the composite slab is considered as a two-span continuous

hinged beam because the slabs are assumed to work together by steel rebars
between supports.

5.2. Reinforcement area derivation

The profiled sheet is not a bearing structure at the operating stage, therefore it
is considered only as permanent formwork. It cannot also be additional
reinforcement because there is not a strong connection between the sheets and
concrete.

Rebars of the main reinforcement are placed longitudinally in each corrugation

of the sheets. Steel wires are welded to the top and bottom reinforcement
creating a dimensional grid.

16
For the steel type AIII (A400) design tensile resistance of longitudinal and lateral
reinforcement is fyd=355 N/mm2

Modulus of elasticity for steel is ES=2*105 N/mm2

The concrete cover of the top reinforcement is 15 mm and 30 mm of the main

reinforcement according to the fire safety requirements.

The limit value of relative compression zone depth is derived by formula 5

(
(3)

where

ω – factor of stress diagram;

ω = 0,8 - 0,008*Rb – formula for aerated concrete;

R – reinforcement stress with allowance for reinforcement yield limit

σsr - limit stress in compression reinforcement. For reinforced concrete (without

prestressing) if fyk≤ 400 N/mm2 then σsr = fyd =400 N/mm2 is accepted;

In case of a collapse, the compression zone is not allowed to break down

because it crushes suddenly and unexpectedly. Tensile zone breaks down
gradually. Firstly, cracks appear and there is a possibility to eliminate defects
and avoid risks without any victims.

Therefore the maximum compression zone height is

(
(4)

17
Compression zone depth is bigger than the effective height of the slab which
indicates that formulas 7and 8 should be used.

Figure 9 Stress distribution

[ ] (5)

(6)

where

– bending moment

– first moment of compression zone area

, - first moments of tensile and compression reinforcement accordingly.

The first moments are calculated geometrically.

Hence:

As= 219 mm2 – area of tensile reinforcement

A’s= -570 mm2 – area of secondary reinforcement

For bottom reinforcement steel type AIII (A400) rods Ø18 cm2 in each
corrugation are accepted.

18
The area of upper reinforcement is negative which means that it is not
necessary for bearing purposes. However, it should be installed because the
steel grid will prevent concrete from setting shrinkage and from spalling.
Therefore the upper reinforcement made of steel type Bp-I Ø4 mm with spacing
200x200 mm is accepted.

For a comparison, concrete type B25 was considered. It possesses higher

density – 2200 kg/m3, while concrete B12,5 has 1200 kg/m3. Hence, the overall
load almost doubles: from 484 kg/m2 to 784 kg/m2 only because of increased
self-weight. Therefore another diameter of reinforcement is needed - Ø20 mm in
each corrugation.

5.3. Steel rebars between supports

Figure 10 Stress distribution of negative moment

The rods are placed between supports of the slabs. The idea is to create an
I-beam section from a T-beam and a rod combining by concrete. Such a
structure allows replacing of the top flange by concrete partially which makes a
considerable cost saving, besides, it simplifies adjusting of the profiled sheets to
the beam by screws.

The egative o e t Мв=7,84 kNm acts in the middle support, therefore the
compression zone of concrete moves to the bottom part of the section. It is
necessary to derive the diameter of the top (tensile) reinforcement rods for this
case.

(7)

19
To simplify the calculation the web of the section is considered as a
compressed zone.

The result is way too big for the size of the section.

A different type of an analysis can be conducted to solve the issue: the diameter
of the top steel rods can be derived based on the assumption that in case of
bending the section undergoes oblique shear forces. Then the middle support
reaction equals the sum of design loads on the slab divided by the sum of area
of slab supporting and area of longitudinal section of a steel rebar

(8)

Where

В- middle support reaction;

- design load at the operating stage;

- number of steel rods in the flange of the section;

- area of longitudinal section of a reinforcement rod, going through

the middle of the rod.

- half of the rod length

- diameter of the steel rod

– bearing area on the T-beam

b- width of the bottom part of corrugation

20
d- length of a corrugation bearing on the beam

If n=1, then D=1,21 m

If n=2, then D=0,6 m

Such values of diameters cannot be implemented in the slab in question.

Based on the results there is an assumption that the stress diagram (continuous
beam) is chosen incorrectly.

Tests, conducted in a laboratory, show (Figure 11) that in case of collapse the
top reinforcement rods do not work with concrete together. Concrete breaks
down faster and the rods are not pulled out from the structure. Consequently,
the slabs work independently from each other and it is vital to consider them as
one-span beams.

This calculation is carried out for the two stages of work of the slab.

SP 52-01-2003 recommends that the diameter of stirrups in bending structures

should be at minimum 6 mm.

Therefore stirrups with diameter 6 mm and spacing 150 mm are accepted.

STO 0045-2005 suggests that the angle of the inclined crack is 45 (Figure 13)

5.6. Deflection of the composite slab
Deflection of the slab is derived by the sum of deflections of the profiled sheets
during the construction phase and deflection of the concrete slab.

In the calculation characteristic loads are used. The calculated deflection should
not exceed the maximum value (formula 18,19)

(16)

where f – deflection of the slab caused by the loads at the operating phase.

[ ] – maximum tolerable deflection of the slab.

6. THE EXCEL PROGRAMME
The excel programme was made with the purpose to create a simple, helpful
tool allowing an engineer to choose and compare different variants of the
structure in question.

To undertake the calculations the programme requires complete information

about materials and geometric characteristics of the structure. The programme
then automatically creates a table of loads: for the construction and operating
stages. (Table 2)

Table 2 Table of loads

The next page determines whether the chosen profiled sheet is suitable for
bearing of the loads or not. (Table 3, 4).

Table 3 Strength of the profiled sheets

The programme also defines the area of reinforcement, the strength of inclined
sections, the strength on the supports and the deflection of the slab. (Table
5,6,7)

7. CONCLUSIONS
There are remarkable results obtained:

1. Wider corrugations of the profiled sheets should be placed in the bottom

to meet the local compression strength requirements and to create
enough concrete covering for working reinforcement.
2. The span of the slab should be limited to 3200 mm in order to satisfy the
deflection requirements.
3. The slabs do not work together even though they are combined y steel
rods between supports, therefore, a one span diagram should be
considered in calculations.
4. The flooring system requires fewer materials (concrete and steel),
therefore it is lighter than the regular reinforced concrete slabs and
applies less loads to lower layers which is truly beneficial when speaking
of multi-storey developments.

32
8. SUMMARY
The purpose of the thesis was to analyse the flooring system – the composite
slab – with the profiled sheets T153-850-L-150 (Ruukki) as permanent
shuttering; to carry out limit state design and determine whether the structure is
suitable for residential buildings or not; to create an Excel programme aiming at
helping an engineer to calculate and compare different characteristics of the
slab quickly.

The results can be assessed as satisfying. The composite slab can be

efficiently used in high-rise developments, besides, it has benefits over other
flooring systems as there is no necessity for shores during erection which are
aimed at supporting formwork loads and liquid concrete until concrete becomes
structurally self-sufficient. Contractors do not need any kind of supports
because the profiled sheets are designed to be able to carry loads of concrete
casting. This is a great benefit which saves a considerable amount of time, as
finishing works can start earlier, and there is no need to buy or lease shores. It
is economical as well.

The Ruukki crew was satisfied with the results as they received the evidence
that the structure can be implemented into their projects and had another
helpful tool to determine the characteristics of the slab.
